## Papers

The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

1. **[PolyLM: An Open Source Polyglot Large Language Model](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wei-2023-polylm-open-source-polyglot-large/)** *(2023 · 103 citations)* Most open LLMs are trained mainly on English, so they handle many widely spoken languages poorly. Open multilingual instruction data and a shared multilingual evaluation suite are also missing. Researchers at Alibaba's DAMO Academy tackle all three gaps. They pre-train PolyLM from scratch in two sizes, 1.7B and 13B…
2. **[Qwen-Scope: Turning Sparse Features into Development Tools for Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/deng-2026-qwen-scope-turning-sparse/)** *(2026 · 3 citations)* Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) break LLM hidden states into a small number of interpretable directions. In practice, though, they have mostly been used to inspect and label features after the fact, not to build or fix models. The Qwen Team addresses this with Qwen-Scope, an openly released collection of SAEs trained on…
3. **[A Data-Efficient Path to Multilingual LLMs: Language Expansion via Post-training PARAMΔ Integration into Upcycled MoE](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhou-2026-data-efficient-path-multilingual-llms/)** *(2026)* Adding a new language to an LLM normally requires continued pre-training (CPT) followed by costly alignment, including SFT and RL on large instruction sets.
4. **[Are All Prompt Components Value-Neutral? Understanding the Heterogeneous Adversarial Robustness of Dissected Prompt in LLMs](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zheng-2026-are-all-prompt-components-value/)** *(2026)* Most work on adversarial prompting treats a prompt as one undivided string. This paper argues instead that prompts are built from functional parts, and that these parts differ in how easily an attack can exploit them.
